Me.

Now, that's what I'm talking about.
Thanks for putting it all in "perspective"

There is a touch of irony in my reading this tonight.
I am thinking about opening a scrapbook store in Hall, an outer suburb of my city (Canberra, Australia). Hall is like a tiny country town, yet just 15 mins from the city. There is a local store, a local pub, a local courthouse etc. It is SO quaint and you wouldn't just live there, you'd BE there. It is somewhere I know I would love to be. The building I am looking at is heritage listed and I think I would love spending my days there....in your words, just being ME.
Thankyou for the added inspiration.

Amen Sista!

So true....
Read this this morning....
For the Self is everything. When the seeker knows this, He falls silent. He no longer thinks, "I am this, I am not that." Such thoughts melt away.
-Ashtavakra Gita 18:9

You forgot something Ali....

The fact that you just you... just trying to muddle along in the crazy world like everyone else. That's why I think you are so great, Ali. That's what I admire about you.

Right on!

Ali,
You are wise beyond your years. Many people spent their whole life trying to be someone else. It's a gift to be grateful for being nothing more, nothing less than yourself.

You go! You do yo thang. You be you...love it! :)

I hear you. You are my guru.
wish i had a dog to let out....
c

just you! love it!

Love it. Don't wear the mom hat yet, but wear so many others... trying to simplify all those hats, all those roles. And be confident in the role of just being me. Thanks for the perspective Ali!

raising a lighter over here in az...

Thanks for that...

Exactly. :)

I know it's wrong of me....sometimes, I wish you'd post hourly.
it would make my PMS days SO much more bearable. ;)

Just be you, because you are a pretty special you. I am much older and still trying to figure out who I am.

Ditto what Cathy said - I love getting on to check and see if you've posted. You are just amazing!

Hey Ali-checking in on my blogs, was caught up in CZ's post for the day, so I added this link. Thought I'd pass it on to you, FYI. Hope you're doing well!
